What can FIR do for you?
Taking responsibility for one’s health is a vital component to a holistic lifestyle; step into Zazen FIR Thermal System and feel the rays as they do their work. Imagine, you can relax your way to keeping fit in only 20 to 30 minutes a day as you burn more than 600 to 900 calories. Subsequently, as your blood circulation improves, internal nutrients and oxygen supplies reach skin cells that will promote and produce new skin cells. Furthermore, if you are suffering from an illness or injury, FIR is also recommended by physicians to accelerate the healing of their patient’s new injuries while providing relief to chronic cases. Lastly, it is with great success that Zazen FIR Thermal System technology is able to provide everyone with a whole body therapy system to improve their quality of life.
1. Preventative Health Care
- Improves blood flow and oxygen circulation
- Purifies the body of disease causing toxins and heavy metals
- Fortifies immune system and resistance to sickness
In today’s world our exposure to chemicals and heavy metals often exceeds our body's abilities to excrete them. The sources range from: mercury from fish, mercury from dental fillings, plastics from food packaging, pesticides from our immediate environment and on and on it goes. All of these sources accumulate in the body and they will ultimately cause problems for many of us.
Sitting in a Zazen FIR Thermal System induces the detoxifying process and purges the body of harmful heavy metals known to cause disease, thus, boosting and fortifying the immune system and improving the body's overall resistance to sickness which is the key to overall body maintenance.
2. Fitness and Weight Loss
- Tones muscles
- Conditions and strengthens the cardiovascular system
- Burns 600-900 calories in a half-hour session
- Increases energy
- Dissolves toxin storing fat through perspiration
- Reduction of cellulite
- Controls weight
- Speeds up the metabolic process of the body’s vital organs and endocrine glands which results in substantial weight loss.
As your body increases sweat production to cool itself, your heart works harder pumping more blood, achieving the conditioning benefits of continuous exercise. Enter Zazen FIR Thermal System and now you can relax your way to keeping fit in only 20 to 30 minutes a day. Imagine burning more than 600 to 900 calories in a half-hour session ... while you rest! This is the same caloric consumption you would yield from a 30-minute high-impact aerobic activity such as rowing at your peak effort or running a six to nine mile marathon. This now also makes it possible for people who cannot physically exert themselves to achieve the same benefits of a fitness and exercise programme.
Extensive research has shown that exposure to the far infrared heat creates the same impact on the cardiovascular system. The rays that penetrate over 1.5 inches deep into muscular tissues and internal organs increase the heart’s volume and rate. The body then cools itself by producing sweat as the heart pumps blood at a faster rate to boost circulation. This likens with the cardiovascular function necessary to burn calories, thus leading to the much desired result of weight loss. And while sitting, in one 30-minute session, the following indicates the number of calories that a 68kg (150 lb) person would normally burn.
| Sports/Activity | Calories | |
| Rowing (peak effort) | 600 | |
| Swimming (front crawl) | 300 | |
| Jogging | 300 | |
| Tennis (fast game) | 265 | |
| Chopping Wood | 265 | |
| Cycling (10mph) | 225 | |
| Golfing (without a cart) | 150 | |
| Walking (3.5mph) | 150 | |
| Bowling | 120 | |
| Vigorous Racquet Ball | 510 | |
| Marathon Running | 593 |
3. Healing
- Promotes expansion of tissues for injury repair and recovery
- Reduces joint stiffness for flexibility
- Relieves muscle spasms
- Relieves pain
- Increases blood flow for quick muscle recovery
- Stops inflammation
- Heals an astounding range of other health problems
Zazen FIR Thermal System is not a heater, it’s a healer! Its whole body therapy system works for the remedy of the most simple to the most compound maladies. Medical practitioners generally use it to accelerate healing of new injuries and provide relief of chronic cases.
In short, far infrared heat promotes pain relief and speeds up muscle and tissue recovery by applying heat on blood vessels causing it to widen and increase in blood circulation to allow oxygen to reach injured areas thus speeding up the healing process. Far infrared healing is now becoming the leading edge in the care of soft tissue injuries to promote both relief in chronic or intractable permanent cases and accelerated healing in newer injuries.
Recent health and medical studies name FIR therapy as a successful treatment for the following: arthritis (TMJ, traumatic, gouty, rheumatoid & DJD); muscle spasms; lower back pain; adhesions; shoulder pain and stiffness; bursitis; whiplash; menopause symptoms; rheumatism; gastro enteric problems; compression fracture; spinal cord shock; muscle tension; post-exercise muscle pain; insomnia.
More provocative results have been reported with the use of far infrared treatment for the following: cancer of the tongue reversed; burn relief, healing and less scaring; high blood pressure; coronary artery tissue; gouty arthritis; low blood pressure; short-term memory; cancer therapy; cerebral haemorrhage; soft tissue injury from an auto accident; exposure to toxic electromagnetic fields; acute and chronic arthritis; rheumatoid arthritis; menopausal symptoms; arteriosclerosis and hypertension.
4. Beauty & Skin
Improved blood circulation treats skin problems by enabling internal nutrients and oxygen supply to reach skin cells. Far infrared energy penetrates the deep layers of the skin, promoting the production of new skin cells. Then accumulated wastes stored under the skin are excreted through fatty sweat.
Far infrared heat stimulates significant perspiration which improves skin quality and tones clears out clogged pores, and the increased circulation stimulated by far infrared encourages an increased flow of nutrients to the skin which adds up to healthy radiant skin and relief from acne, eczema, psoriasis, burns, sunburn, dry skin, cold hands and feet, etc.
By widening your blood vessels and enriching your blood with oxygen you feel more energetic and your skin gets a beautiful, youthful glow. Most beauty and skincare products offer external and superficial treatments to dermatological problems. Far infrared energy works from the outside in, emitting the full bio-spectrum that penetrates the deep layers of the skin. The process stimulates molecular activity to promote the metabolism of skin cells.
- Cleanses skin
- Induces a healthy glow
- Rejuvenates
- Increases circulation of the blood to open up the capillaries for a greater blood flow to sluggish areas which results in opening up the pores to create a deep sweat which flushes out toxins.
- Promotes production of new cells
- Deep cleanses pores
- Allows oxygen supply essential for skin moisture
- Treats burns, cuts, wounds and other skin problems
- Reduces cellulite and improves skin elasticity
- Reduces stretch marks, keloids and sunburn
5. Anti-aging
- Increases mental clarity
- Restores energy levels
- Improves metabolism
- Body becomes more flexible
- Restores youthfulness
- Combats the aging process through cell regeneration
Far Infrared Therapy helps to reverse the affects of aging in many ways. By helping to oxygenate the blood, blood circulation is increased to bring much needed oxygen to all parts of your body. This refreshing oxygen makes the cells of your body healthier by expanding blood vessels and unclogging capillaries. In conjunction, far infrared therapy helps rush nutrients to your internal organs, making them healthier and reversing the affects of aging. On the outside of your body, this therapy gives your skin a much healthier tone and helps to remove aging spots.
Having said that, many age-related illnesses are caused due to lifelong, harmful, lifestyle habits, so as far infrared saunas help to improve circulation and detoxify the body, a healthful lifestyle encourages ones over all well-being.
6. Detoxification
- Purges toxic waste products through the skin
- Aversion of future cancers
- Increases immune system
- Fewer allergies
- Purges toxic waste products through the skin
- Aversion of future cancers
- Increases immune system
- Fewer allergies
Sweat from exercise is not as effective as far infrared sauna sweat. Exercise activates the sympathetic nervous system which inhibits the elimination of toxins. Sweating in a far infrared sauna doesn’t activate the sympathetic nervous system which therefore allows for more toxic elimination. Scientists in Japan have reported that in the FIR treatment of clogged capillary vessels, heat expands the capillaries and then initiates the start of a process to dissolve hidden toxins. Far Infrared promotes the elimination of: fats, chemicals and toxins from the blood; poisons, carcinogenic heavy metals; toxic substances from food processing; lactic acid; free fatty acids; subcutaneous fat associated with aging and fatigue; excess sodium associated with hypertension ; and uric acid which causes pain.
Since the Industrial Revolution and World War II toxins have been accumulating in the human body faster than they can be eliminated. Therefore, depending on one’s health, far infrared therapy leads to preventative health care and overall wellness preventing the accumulation of toxins and acidic wastes.
